Package Exports

mbtiles-server

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (mbtiles-server) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Benchmark

1 Active User => 400 requests/min
1 Passive User => 50 requests/min

Using mbtiles-server you could easily sustain 60 active users and up to 480 passive users. These tests were done on the server locally, network traffic and switches could slow down these results significantly.

WMTS

The goal of providing a WMTS enabled service is to be performance oriented and scalable. Therefore, servers must be able to return tiles quickly. A good way to achieve that is to use locally stored pre-rendered tiles that will not require any image manipulation or geo-processing.
